Brief Summary: This project will examine whether individuals can be trained using real-time feedback about brain function during neuroimaging to effectively remove thoughts from mind by providing them with a sense of what it feels like to successfully remove a thought
Detailed Description: On the first day an anatomical MRI scan will be followed by a 12-min resting state scan a 30-min item localizer task in which participants view a set of 80 scene stimuli 3 times each and a 10-min memory test outside the scanner The brain data from the localizer will be used to identify baseline measures of item-specific brain activity patterns On 3 subsequent days within the next 2 weeks participants will receive neurofeedback training In each 1-hr session an anatomical scan will be followed by 8 runs 5 min each of 20 trials half with each operation randomly ordered and a 10-min behavioral memory test In the scanner participants will perform a working memory task in which they encode a scene image and then are instructed to either maintain that image in mind for a few seconds or to suppress that image from mind At the end of each trial neurofeedback will be provided to the participant visually to denote their level of engagement in the instructed operation on that trial The neurofeedback is derived from the MRI classifier fit for the instructed operation maintain or suppress from a working memory operation classifier that is pre-trained on prior data Participants N40 will be randomly assigned to either the positive or negative valence condition They will encounter stimuli from their assigned valence only during the neuroimaging task but from both valences during the behavioral tests so that the investigators can evaluate whether any learning generalizes across emotional valence
